| Algeria police violently disperse election protest |
| 2014-04-17 |
| [FOXNEWS] Algerian police violently dispersed an attempt by opposition activists to stage a protest in the capital against the president's running for a fourth term in Thursday's elections. Only a few members of the grass-root organization Barakat were able to assemble in central Algiers Wednesday before police tackled them and forced them to march away in front of a group of international journalists. Past protests by Barakat -- which means "enough" in Arabic -- were allowed to take place in Algiers. |
